However, this depends upon the cache headers that your server sends. To change this, you need to alter the server configuration. A quick fix on the client is to change the page URI so that it contains a unique element, such as the current time. For example: ` location.replace(location.href+'?d='+new Date().valueOf()) ` If the ` location.href ` already contains a query String, use: ` location.replace(location.href+'&d='+new Date().valueOf()) ` http://www.mnot.net/cache_docs/ http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6408-10/date.htm The complete comp.lang.javascript FAQ is at http://jibbering.com/faq/ -- The sendings of these daily posts are proficiently hosted by http://www.pair.com. |
